Spanish term

Aplisiáceos (last word)

Spanish to English Science Biology (-tech,-chem,micro-)
From a chapter of a book on ecology titled: "To be or not to be (seen); that is the question. Cripsis, aposematism and mimickry in an ecological and evolutionary context". TIA, Jason.

Las coloraciones y formas crípticas eran ejemplos magníficos de adaptación y coevolución que modelaba semejanzas inverosímiles. No parecían necesitar de otro acicate que la selección natural e indicaban una dependencia estricta de estos animales por el sustrato y/o el alimento. Sin embargo, las coloraciones aposemáticas o advertidoras, y el engaño asociado, el mimetismo batesiano, exigían un sustrato defensivo suficiente, químico o físico, para permitir el pavoneo de las especies implicadas. Los nudibranquios aposemáticos debían tener su “aguijón”, como las avispas, pero a principios de los setenta el conocimiento de éstos se reducía a los cnidocistos de los eolidáceos, a secreciones ácidas o repugnantes de algunos grupos testáceos y a la tinta de los ***Aplisiáceos***.

anaspideans (aplysiaceans)

En inglés parece que se da preferencia a otro nombre sinónimo, "anaspideans" ("anaspídeos" en español). Compruebalo con una búsqueda en Google.
Se refiere a las "liebres de mar" (sea hares), cuyo género más conocido es Aplysia (muy utilizadas en trabajos de neurobiología).

***Orden Anaspídeos o Aplisiáceos***


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_hare

Sea hares (a type of sea slug) are small marine gastropod molluscs of the suborder *** Anaspidea *** (P. Fisher, 1883) in the subclass Orthogastropoda, class Gastropoda, phylum Mollusca. Their common name derives from the projections on their bodies which somewhat resemble rabbit ears. Their scientific name (Anaspidea) is derived from the Greek for "without a shield" and refers to the lack of the head shield which characterises other members of the Opisthobranchia.

Many *** anaspideans *** have only a thin, internal and much-reduced shell with a small mantle cavity; some have no shell at all. All species have a radula and gizzard plates.

aplysiids are not the same as anaspids, from what I understand!
Peer comment(s):

neutral Andrés Martínez : Entiendo la confusión, sólo depende de una "e". El término que sugieres es una familia, no el orden/suborden, no es lo mismo. www.wordwebonline.com/en/ANASPID. Anaspid, anaspids. Type of: agnathan, jawless fish, jawless vertebrate. Part of: Anaspida
